Touchdown in the DPRK

09.09.2008 Pyongyang, North Korea 朝鮮 平壤
With some trepidation we arrived at Pyongyang in North Korea, or the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). The portrait of President Kim Il Song would become a very familiar sight.


Completed in 1982, the Arch of Triumph is a monument to the home return of President Kim Il Sung.
